Blueing succulents
Been a couple of days since my last post. So, here's a section of my teeny weeny garden on succulents. Didn't I tell you how much I fancy blue?
These containers that you see here are from Khurja (small town in the state of Uttar Pradesh, India). I'll write about that another day.
Happy gardening!

the green in the blue...
Blue enamors me, and so does Jaipur's famed blue pottery. Blue pottery has persian origin and traveled with Mughals to India. It has a time-consuming process but the results are excellent. This craft now has the Geographical Indications (GI) status that will save its uniqueness and protect the artisans from losing business to cheaper versions available elsewhere.
I picked up these beautiful planters from Jaipur that now adorns my living space.
